Probably not, considering they seem pretty proud of this sorta garbage....

Guess I'm the oddball. I thought it was pretty cool.

“Despite an industry slump that has seen mass pilot lay-offs, the global civil aviation industry will still require an estimated 27,000 new pilotsby the end of 2021, or 264,000 over the coming decade. ... Age-based retirement and fleet growth were, and are expected to remain, the main drivers of pilot demand.”Nov 9, 2020

That silly video was pretty degrading.
Love that 320 FO next to the red Ferrari. How cool is that? Been in this business 30 years, still no wicked cool super car.

I better call Super Car Blondie to remedy that.

Air India has more female pilots I believe in case UAL HR is counting.

if anyone wants to come to this profession they can come and compete for the training, for the hiring, and for the profession. No special gender biased/racial preference programs are required or needed.

Make a hoe blush....

And some other colorful lyrics in the song.

Very empowering to women, which the whole “challenge” was about

The lyrics were nuts. As in, no way in hell is my daughter going to listen to that crap.

I wonder if Adolf Hitler is going to gin up one of those cool videos where's he's having a delusional syphilis induced rage while standing about the table. Naturally he's enraged he can't hire enough women and minority pilots for the Luftwaffe.

His Generals and Field Marshals don't know where to find them. They can't find minority pilots. What to do?

Hitler won't stand for it. We must have an "Aviate-Luftwaffe Academy" Frauline-Fliegen-Minderheit-Luftwaffe-DeAcademy-En Avion

Cue the Hitler video..............

Thats actually brilliant.

I wonder what the one woman will say to the other when standing in the hallway 🤔

You guys sure are uptight. I didn't really care about the lyrics... Aside from "don't rush," they weren't all that clear anyway. I certainly didn't go Google them to go pick the song apart, line by line. But if that makes you happy, sure. What I noticed was, the song had a catchy beat that went with the very creative video. It was interesting and captured the idea of our colleagues dual lives at home and as United pilots. I especially liked the one where the lady appeared in uniform and kissed her daughters goodbye, the look on their faces reminds me of how my daughters look when I put mine on. I thought it was creative and interesting.


Lyrics nuts? I bet you'd explode if you heard an Eminem song. I'm sure your parents approved of all the music you listened to as an adolescent, right? Hopefully, my daughters will be able to hear a song like that while out and about and not be permanently corrupted... But, hey, you never know... right?

Seriously. A cute, creative video by our colleagues and you guys are fully "pitchforks out!" Kinda makes me glad we have an increasingly diverse pilot group, to be honest.
